I received an ARC of Fake Dating the Footballer from Netgalley and author Marion De Ré. I am so glad that I did because I enjoyed this book. I love a good sports romance book, especially football (soccer). Thanks so much for the opportunity to read this book!
Roxanne (Roxi) hates football. Her dad and brother are obsessed and all her life she has never understood why. She couldn’t tell you a single player on any football team. That is until she finds herself at the airport to pick up the man she thinks she is in love with….and his surprise fiance! Panicked, she introduces them her ‘boyfriend,’ a man who just happened to be sitting next to her. That man coincidentally happens to be London’s golden boy soccer player, Wade Hunter. Wade plays along with her, thinking that he would never see her again. It isn’t until his publicist suggests that dating her would help his image after seeing a picture of them in the newpaper, that he reaches out to her. They agree to help each other out by fake dating. The big question remains, will Wade choose his love of football or the love of his life?
I absolutely adored this book, especially Roxi as the main character. She is so relatable, she is a normal full figured woman who struggled with body image issues and insecurities while at the same time being confident and unapologetic in who she is. I loved that, especially that she had such a strong personality while dating England’s most eligible bachelor and having models and celebrities judging her. I love that Wade thinks that she is perfect exactly as she is, beautiful inside and out and stands up for her in all settings. This was a closed door romance, which might almost be better than explicite scenes. Marion De Ré does a great job of leaving the scenes at the perfect time for your imagination.
